"Film is a disease. When it infects your bloodstream, it takes over as the number one hormone; it bosses the enzymes; directs the pineal gland; plays Iago to your psyche. As with heroin, the antidote to film is more film." - Frank Capra "I dread success. To have succeeded is to have finished one's business on earth, like the male spider, who is killed by the female the moment he has succeeded in his courtship. I like a state of continual becoming, with a goal in front and not behind." --GB Shaw "You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of this world's happiness now. How? By giving a few words of sincere appreciation to someone who is lonely or discouraged. Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today, but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime. --Dale Carnegie "We work in the dark -- we do what we can -- we give what we have. Our doubt is our passion, and our passion is our task. The rest is the madness of art." -Henry James "The only dream worth having is to dream that you will live while you are alive, and die only when you are dead. To love, to be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and vulgar disparity of the life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget."-Arundhati Roy
i like people who have class. i like people that are reliable. i like people that are not blinded by faith or religion. i like people who are capable of loving things more than they do thenmselves.. i like girls that are stylish. i like people who are generous. i like people with integrity. i like people who will stand up for themselves. i like meeting people.The only people for me are the mad ones. The ones who are mad to love, mad to talk, mad to be saved; the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow Roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars. - Jack Kerouac ____________________________________________________________ ___________________________If we greatly transform ourselves, those friends of ours who have not been transformed become ghosts of our past: their voice comes to us like the voice of a shade [in a frightfully spectral manner] - as though we were hearing oneself, only younger, more severe, less mature. - F. Nietzsche
